Router left on or turned off when not used?

I know we've discussed this before but when my replacement router arrived one of the things I noticed in the booklet was the advice to leave it turned on.

In the past I took the answer to be turn it off often so that it can update its local software. Frankly, I didn't bother much until trying anything and everything to make it work.

The booklet suggested the local exchange would downgrade the signal rate if it was turned off and that it might take three days to switch back to maximum efficiency.

There must be a lot of things I don't know and if true, that was one of them.
